WW: KHP Things
My mom caught this shot early in the morning at the KHP during NDPC. I want that job!

Meeting Katlyn (Subtitle: Connor Charms the Ladies)
One of the best parts of Pony Cup was meeting Katlyn of Stubborn Together. I have loved all of the bloggers I've met, but there have been a couple that I just knew I would hit it off with the moment I met them. Katlyn was one of them, and we were not disappointed.
She ended up hanging out with me for a long time on Friday evening, helping me fit a trial PS of Sweden to Connor's head (more on that later), and then even coming back out after she had eaten and gone to her AirBnB later that night to have drinks with me, my mom and Connor's breeder while we ate a late dinner.
On the way home my mom and Connor's breeder couldn't stop talking about how it felt like they had known her their whole lives. I felt the same way! She's awesome, and you guys should all meet her if you get the chance.
We were trying to get a nice posed photo of the three of us for the blog, and my mom kept snapping away on her camera while Connor was charming the heck out of Katlyn. The resulting series of pictures were too cute not to share! Enjoy.

Sick Days and Vaccinations
I somewhat inexplicably contracted strep throat and spent the last two days home sick. The best nurse dog ever helped me through it, though.
And besides, it gave me some much needed time to take my final pictures of my house in its current state and get packing. Going to miss this little house, but I'm looking forward to working on the next one!
So I ran out to the barn when I was starting to feel better and gave Connor his spring vaccine. I went with Vetera Gold XP this year, which I have never used before, but the vet recommended it for the particular strains of equine influenza it protects against based on what's going around this year. It's like the human flu shot, where they guess what strains will be most prevalent and make the vaccine to reflect that guess.
I guess my logic was that I wasn't up to riding, so he shouldn't be either? I gave him his shot and handwalked him for 10 minutes after to try to mitigate soreness as much as I could, then turned him back out to move around.
In the meantime, we're planning our next event, which looks to be Midsouth at KHP in June, preceded by a schooling show and XC schooling. Anyone going to that?
